1. Counseling
If your problem is not that severe and you have
not experienced much struggle or consequences as
a result, you might look into counseling
services.  This may or may not work for you.  In
my case, I was hopelessly addicted to drugs and
alcohol, and my family urged me to get help.
 Seeing a therapist or a counselor for an hour or
two each week was a good way for me to pretend to
be doing something about my problem.

2. Inpatient Detox
Inpatient detox and residential treatment This
is really the bread and butter of treating
addicts and alcoholics.  Checking into drug rehab
for detox and a short term program is basically
the default solution at this point.  If you have
tried counseling or going to 12 step meetings
without success, then this is the next logical
step for you.  Seek out inpatient rehab and get
checked in.

3. Long Term Rehab
This is the service of choice when everything
else has failed.  No one wants to live in rehab,
but that is what it takes for some, and can be
the start of an awesome new life.  Cost can be a
factor of course, but some programs are set up to
help even the homeless addict or alcoholic to get
a fresh start on life.  Long term works when
other solutions fail, though it is not a
cure-all.  Seek it out if you are truly desperate.

4. Outpatient Treatment Services
Same as inpatient rehab but you sleep at home
each night, then come back to rehab the next day.
 Useless in my opinion, though it does work for
some who are especially motivated.  If you have
environmental factors that can trigger you to use
drugs or alcohol, outpatient is not much help
because it does nothing to protect you from those
triggers.  Inpatient does.

5. 12 Step Meetings
Not really a professional service, but still
worthy of mentioning, because some addicts and
alcoholics have used them to get clean and sober,
and made it work.  Price is free if you have no
money.   Great follow up care for some if you are
into this as your main solution for recovery.
 Worth checking out for anyone because they are
widespread and generally very supportive.
